the 2021 Mr. Olympia fourth place rattled off various ways athletes perform cardio, dispelling commonly perceived opinions that concur with them. He said that she trained in a climber it wouldn’t “dig your glutes any further”, although it might cost the leg size. Also, walk on the treadmill versus training in a bike has no particular advantage, but has the potential disadvantage of shin splints.
